Well, this season is turning into a train wreck for me. The voles are totally terrorizing me. Even with full time trapping in place, I have lost dozens of plants out of my garden including my two 6' tall long gourds. I am forced to replant "just for the fun of it" and most of my garden sits vacant. Honestly it makes me want to devote my life to the extermination of vermin. My AG is a real vigorous freak, however it got the yellow leaf spotting real bad the second it hit the soil. It is now clearing up but now phyto has set in and has led me to cut back the vines heavily. I had a plan in place at the beginning of the year to beat the NC state records but now I feel like a fool. A fool to spend thousands of dollars, weeks of time, and a gigabit of mental capacity on this hobby. I will be a fool to ever try it again. Enough of my poor me rant, time to check the traps and see if I paid back some of those assvoles. Good luck to you all. Grow'm big.
